Cool Completed: Snake Bitten 'Vette

well after about a month of working on it, it is finally done. there are a few flaws. the doors are a shade lighter than the rest of the car and the body sits high on the chassis. but this was a learning experience, i think that all in all it turned out good.

here are the picks.

















be sure and let me know what you think

Re: Completed: Snake Bitten 'Vette

Look's great with the viper motor in there, Now you just need to Twin Turbo it .. Car look's great, I love the color/rim combo.

Re: Completed: Snake Bitten 'Vette

Nice Vette. I like the transplant, although it'd be a lot cooler supercharged I think......

Nice either way though.

Re: Completed: Snake Bitten 'Vette

cool. glad its done. as much as im not a mopar fan, this vette is pretty fly. good work, and how about dumping the v10 into AMT's dodge ram 50. they're pretty cheep, plus come with fender flares and factory body mods.

Re: Completed: Snake Bitten 'Vette

i'll see what i can do for some better pics. the only digi cam i got is on my sprint phone so i am kinda limited. some of them turned out really good in the progress thread. the ones in this one kinda suck. i found the recipient of the other v-10 i got. i think im gonna get the 67? plymouth gtx. the 2 n 1 with the 426 hemi. i know i know. the hemi is awesome. but i want to make this similar to oakie modeler's pro touring cars. some big torque thrusts and stuff like that. modernize it.
